Rudy Giuliani just incriminated EVERYONE
Even as the debate continues as to whether Rudy Giuliani is sabotaging Donald Trump out of inept senility or because it’s some kind of intentional strategy, there’s no debate about the damage that Giuliani is doing to Trump’s already-bleak legal prospects. In short, Rudy has made every mistake you can make for a client, from the fundamental to the cartoonish. Now his latest move has not only incriminated Donald Trump, but pretty much every one of the key players in the Trump campaign.
Over the weekend we learned that Michael Cohen is prepared to testify that he witnessed Donald Trump signing off in advance on Donald Trump Jr’s law-breaking meeting with Russian government representatives at Trump Tower. In response, Giuliani appeared on cable news this morning and revealed that the Trump campaign held a formal planning meeting and plotted out how to handle it. This means everyone in that meeting is looking at a prison sentence.
Rudy has since spent the day trying to walk it back, first by claiming that Trump wasn’t in the preparation meeting, and then by claiming that the planning meeting didn’t involve any discussion about the blackmail material being offered by Russia. But it’s too late, as the damage has already been done. The public now knows that the leaders of the Trump campaign sat down and plotted how to illegally plot with the Russians. That puts them all on the hook for conspiracy to commit the crimes that Donald Trump Jr ended up committing during the treason meeting.
To be clear, Robert Mueller has already long known about all of the above, because Rudy Giuliani also revealed this morning that Rick Gates – who has since cut a plea deal – was in attendance. But by publicly incriminating everyone, Rudy is (wittingly or unwittingly) making it much easier for Mueller to eventually sell the American public on Donald Trump’s guilt.
